Traditional Washed, SL28/SL-34/Ruiru 11/Batian, Lightest Roaster Influence - Best for Filter/Pourover/Turbo Espresso
3 key notes: [Blackcurrant, Poached Rhubarb, Violet
Traditional Washed: Selectively picked cherries are delivered by smallholders to Gakuyu-ini Factory, where they are sorted at intake, then pulped in the afternoon with the parchment fermented overnight. The parchment is then washed with density sorting, with the top grades sent for a secondary soak in fresh water of around 16 hrs, before moving to raised beds to dry over 8 - 14 days, weather dependent.
We're tasting:
Really classic Kenyan aromatics - blackcurrant & apple cordial, some floral black tea like darjeeling. In the cup it's like hot vimto - all the purple fruits, with a hint of baking spice and pomegranate molasses, alongside lemon verbena and a floral note that reminds us of parma violets. As it cools, the acidity resolves to a really juicy malic note like poached rhubarb. Emblematic of type
